RFID construction
Sapele should be treated as a premium veneer sample route: approve the veneer batch, final edge, chip position, and reader behavior together before production.
Print and marking
The stronger grain favors restrained marks, metallic details, and laser linework. Dense print should be tested because it can compete with the natural surface.
